When the red, red robin comes bob, bob, bobbin' along, along
There'll be no more sobbin' when he starts throbbin' his old sweet song
Wake up, wake up, you sleepy head
Get up, get up, get out of bed
Cheer up, cheer up, the sun is red
Live, love, laugh and be happy

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm so lonesome I could cry

 

I've never seen a night so long
When time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind the clouds
To hide its face and cry

 

Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die
That means he's lost the will to live
I'm so lonesome I could cry

 

The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry

Dude. I would have kept up with this thread, but instead of smartly thinking of A lyric (singular) to reply to the previous lyric, most of you are just posting verses and multiple verses of lyrics with no correlation to the previous post, sheesh.

 

E.g. previous post about birds:

 

I am not your carpet ride, I AM THE SKY.

Have you ever seen the rain coming down on a sunny day?

My uncle starts winning, the cowboys got sore,
One of them called him, and then two more,
Accused him of cheatin', oh no it couldn't be,
I know my uncle, he's as honest as me,
And I'm as honest as a Denver man can be.

We're so sorry Uncle Albert
We're so sorry if we caused you any pain
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But there's no one left at home
And I believe I'm gonna rain
 
We're so sorry but we haven't heard a thing all day
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But if anything should happen we'll be sure to give a ring

Little Melvin has a natural obsession
Askin' for Prince Albert in a can
He gets a kick each time he makes a collect call
To some guy he doesn't know who lives in Japan
He's callin' strangers up at three in the morning
Gives 'em pizza pie delivery at four
He won't be laughin' when they're tracin' his line
One day the phone police will be there at his door
Yo, hear me

 

Don't go makin' phony calls
Only dial the seven-digit numbers you're used to
Swear someday I'm gonna yank that phone cord right out from the wall
How long is this phase gonna last?
Come on

Woke up this morning I was all alone

Saw your picture by the telephone
I was missing you oh so bad
Wish I had you here to hold

All I've got is this touch-tone phone
So I guess I'll give you a call

They heard me singing and they told me to stop
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock
These days my life, I feel it has no purpose
But late at night the feelings swim to the surface

'Cause on the surface the city lights shine
They're calling at me, come and find your kind
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small
That we can never get away from the sprawl

Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains
And there's no end in sight
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

We rode our bikes to the nearest park
Sat under the swings and kissed in the dark
We shield our eyes from the police lights
We run away, but we don't know why

And like a mirror, the city lights shine
They're screaming at us, ["We don't need your kind"]
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small
That we can never get away from the sprawl

Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains
And there's no end in sight
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

They heard me singing and they told me to stop
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small
Can we ever get away from the sprawl?
Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains
And there's no end in sight
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

 

 

EDIT: If you can identify THIS, I'll be impressed.

Sometimes I wonder
How I'd ever make it through
Through this world without having you
I just wouldn't have a clue


'Cause sometimes it seems
Like this world's closing in on me
And there's no way of breaking free
And then I see you reach for me


Sometimes I wanna give up
I wanna give in
I wanna quit the fight


And then I see you, baby
And everything's alright
Everything's alright


When I see you smile
I can face the world, oh oh
You know I can do anything


When I see you smile
I see a ray of light, oh oh
I see it shining right through the rain


When I see you smile
Baby, when I see you smile at me.

I wonder what would happen if my dog could talk
Would he look me in the eye and say, "Take me for a walk"?
When I gave him his dinner, would he shake his head
And say, "Take it away, I want caviar instead"?

How much is that doggie in the window?
The one with the waggly tail
How much is that doggie in the window?
I do hope that doggie's for sale
 
I read in the papers there are robbers
With flashlights that shine in the dark
My love needs a doggie to protect him
And scare them away with one bark
